You will be receiving, if you have not already, your renewal for your Ohio Pesticide, or Fertilizer license renewal from the Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA). Along with the license renewal form will be a Ohio Public Safety form titled Declaration Regarding Material Assistance / Nonassistance To A Terrorist Organization.
The Department of Homeland Security is requiring states to obtain this declaration in an effort to make sure no one knowingly is a terrorist, or supports terrorist organization as defined by the U.S. Department of State Terrorist Exclusion List.
If you do not return a completed - answering all questions - copy of this form to ODA, ODA will not be allowed to issue your license.
Don't forget to make a copy for your records.
